Frequently Asked Questions
Is there pain during periodontal treatment?
Periodontal treatments aim to address problems in the gums and surrounding tissues. Temporary sensitivities and mild pain may be experienced during the treatment due to procedures such as gum cleaning. Local anaesthesia is applied where deemed necessary.
How long does periodontal treatment last?
The duration of periodontal treatment varies depending on the severity of the periodontal condition, the treatment method used, and the patient's adherence to the treatment plan. Commitment to home oral care and regular follow-up visits can significantly affect the treatment duration.
From what age can periodontal treatment be applied?
Periodontal treatment can be applied at any age, provided that the person has reached adequate dental maturity. What is important here is the condition of the gum and bone structure rather than age.
How often are check-ups needed during periodontal treatment?
The frequency of check-ups during periodontal treatment depends on the severity of the periodontal problem and how the teeth and gums are responding to the treatment. Generally, specialists may schedule check-ups every 3 to 6 months, but this can vary based on individual needs.
Does periodontal treatment require special care?
Yes, periodontal treatment often requires advanced oral hygiene practices. This includes careful brushing, flossing, and potentially other special cleaning tools to maintain gum health and prevent plaque and tartar buildup, which can further worsen periodontal problems.
